Israel conducted airstrikes on Houthi military sites in Yemen, including Red Sea ports and energy infrastructure in Sanaa, after intercepting a missile over central Israel. The attack, which damaged a school and vehicles in Ramat Gan near Tel Aviv, followed Houthi aggression linked to solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. Houthi-run media reported nine fatalities, including seven at Salif port and two at Ras Issa oil facility. Since October 2023, Yemen’s Houthis have launched hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel. The ongoing conflict underscores escalating regional tensions amid Gaza-related hostilities.
